While forcing Brian to join me in organizing and throwing out all of our excess Shit (Calm down...I am not using shit as an offensive word or speaking about feces, but rather to describe the magnitude of things we have both accumulated over the years and its worthless existence in our house, so bear with me) he stumbled upon a rather large box of stuffed animals. These stuffed animals are probably from exes and or 12 year old fans or obsessed soccer moms back from his "glory days". Well, he decided to give the only stuffed animal out of the huge box that sheds incessantly to Nesta. Was there some sentimental value there Dunseth?
So to my surprise this morning this if how I find Nesta's little stuffed monkey!

Yes as you can see she ripped the innocent monkeys eyes out! And Brian wonders why I insist Nesta be put away when we have friends over, especially toddlers and infants. He just keeps promising that Nesta just wants to give our poor guests kisses, but as you can see Mr. Dunseth, I am right again.

Jade and I get up, start some breakfast and while we're doing that, this is what we get. Nesta will sit patiently for a minute or two, then we get the look. Then it's a "snarf" and if she still hasn't gotten any food, it's a full out high jump competition!

For Xmas Jade got me the box set of Planet Earth, a show I absolutely love. But, this is what happens when we try to watch a DVD.













It starts with Nesta listening, then jumping up because she wants to play with whatever animal is on the screen.










When she can't figure how to get to them, she looks around the corner in hopes of finding them behind the television.

Only one more day. Tonight we're having everyone over to our house for Christmas Eve dinner, then up to Skip and Joyce Acosta's for a merry ol' time. Pam, Ray, Bart, Jerry, York, Kurt, Brady, Heather, Jaelynn, Nesta and Missi will enjoy Jade's homemade Chili and my Guac.









And this little rugrat Nesta is waiting eagerly for the arrival of family and friends. She's ready to eat till she drops!

We thought we would let everyone know that we've installed our new alarm system! So anyone heading over this Holiday Season, be warned.

This isn't one of those fake card readers from the movie Big. This is an battle tested, attack minded Bulldog whose perch is the front bay window of our home.

If by some chance you do decide to head over, move slowly and keep your hands where they're visible. Just a little warning!
